> Hi. Is it possible to use init to restart some user critical processes if they die. Has any work been done in this area. Please CC me. init can do that, but I encourage the usage of svscan which you can find in : /usr/ports/sysutils/service-config - you can delegate the services monitoring/administration to their owners/other than the superusers. - take the services up/down as needed (without modifying the ttys file and having to do init q) - log every service uptime/downtime in a separate log. hoep this helps, Ed. -- Edmond Baroud UNIX Systems Admin mailto:SoHo@admin.fido.ca Fingerprint 140F 5FD5 3FDD 45D9 226D 9602 8C3D EAFB 4E19 BEF9 "UNIX is very user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are."
